Hooray Sara is feeling much better. No medicines or special remedies. Just plan ol’ small sips of water, small bits of food, and rest. We are so happy for our cockpit enclosure. We cannot express enough how much more comfortable our sailing experience has been enhanced by this simple piece of clear plastic meticulously sewed together and zipped to our dodger/bimini.
As our subject line suggests, we caught 7 feet of mahi. Better would have been one single fish, but alas it was 3 with a combined length of seven feet, the smallest one of which we threw back. A would be fourth and largest mahi got away (of course) at the back of the boat. Thus, mahi is the dinner course for this afternoon.
Cheers,
Wade and Sara
